The method
Step by step
- 1
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
About 5 min
- 2
In a large bowl, combine the brussels sprouts, olive oil, maple syrup, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
About 2 min
Cook’s note: Ensure all the sprouts are evenly coated with the oil and seasonings for best flavor and crispiness.
- 3
Spread the seasoned brussels sprouts in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
About 1 min
Cook’s note: Avoid overcrowding the baking sheet, as this can steam the sprouts instead of roasting them, preventing a good crisp.
- 4
Roast for 20-25 minutes, or until the brussels sprouts are tender on the inside and nicely caramelized and slightly crispy on the outside.
About 25 min
Cook’s note: For extra crispiness, you can flip them halfway through the cooking time.

Serve immediately as a delicious side dish.
